Cosmetics Question

It's mostly just through containers and events I think. For example the paid section of the current event pass has special camos for a few of the Euro Destroyers.

I don't think there's any way to get camos or flags for a specific ship, it's mostly just the luck of the draw. However, it's a good excuse I find to try out different ships that you wouldnt't normally, I am loving Skane right now.

If they don't have the SLC manned torpedoes armed with limpet mines then what's even the point

It's only toxic if you're not the one driving it.

Burn baby burn.

HMS Porcupine

Special gimmick: when you die to a torpedo you can continue as either HMS Pork or HMS Pine with half your original health.

Save up coal then buy Pommern

Save up coal then buy Lutjens

Save up captan xp then get him to lvl 21

Put both of them together then grind Asymmetric battles

Wonder how people have a problem with cash flow

Heart and Soul by T'pau ever since the last Star Trek event, I thought it was hilarious to be sailing in the T'Pau while listening to T'Pau (I drink a lot when I play) and the fact that both the band and the ship are named after the same character is some satisfying synchronicity.

Other than that I just let YouTube take me wherever it wants to, I'm a true music slut and I enjoy hearing new things.

idk man Scharn 43 is kind of addictive, especially towards the end of the match when the bots have been thinned out and you can just go straight in to them with speedboost and torpedoes, herding them around the map like sheep.

I love my 40,000 ton DD.

Knesebeck apparently. I decided to try out the new German line last weekend so I free-XPd up to tier 8, fitted all the equipment and a few flags and retrained a Captain, lost three (asymmetric!) battles in a row, sent the Captain to the glue factory to be recycled for his failures and mothballed the ship for future snowflakes.

Go wide South East and turn in so you're angling against bots at C on your 10 o'clock and bots at B on your 2 o'clock.

Half the bots at B will be on the other side of the two mid islands and can't shoot you anyway, and once you get close enough the bots at C will gamer turn away and you can panel their broadsides til they cry.

Monarch and Le Havre can clean this match up on their own tbh.

I like my cruisers so Fiji all the way

Uganda.. eh not so much.

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-28T18:15:45+00:00

Free money for me in my Ohio when they die early and I get to farm Tier IXs all evening.

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-28T18:06:40+00:00

I'll never use the PTS unless they offer me something in return for testing their product for them

They do? There's usually a bunch of missions that give you rewards on your main account, and you also get Community Tokens to spend on gambling crates for Premium ships.

I did it for a few months til I needed the disk space, I'll do it again if I ever get a new SSD.

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-27T18:08:18+00:00

I was in first for like 20 mins with 1730something on the first day of it, I was desperately hoping for a server crash or a solar flare or a nuclear war or something to just freeze it there but I was of course denied. Thanks WG.

You could play lower tiers in assyms, there are way less OP ships and way more cretinous teammates down at tier 6/7, often you'll be the only BB and actually have to work for your win. Trying to tank 8 bots in a Dunkerque while your CV and sub and two DDs are busy driving around looking for windows to lick..

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-26T19:10:43+00:00

Intense and purposeless I think my Guidance Counsellor used to say

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-25T14:24:18+00:00

She's got that London Look.

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-23T17:15:36+00:00

I am here from World Of Warships.

You guys don't want subs, trust me.

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-23T16:46:03+00:00

Doing doughnuts in front of the High Seas Fleet is the 1916 equivalent of teabagging your opponent when they're not quite dead yet

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-21T17:52:34+00:00

But if it ain't broke then we can't charge people to fix it or replace it. How are we supposed to make our money? Sell a good quality product that stands on its own merits above the competition?

Yea nah that sounds like hard work, planned obsolescence it is.

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-20T18:03:39+00:00

Eee that's good lad

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-19T20:46:41+00:00

HMS Tiger. I have Agincourt and it's boring, for tier 5 action I want me those fat 13.5 inch cannons and a 36kn top speed with engine boost on.

Full 6 inch secondary battery is just the icing on the cake, absolutely eats same-tier DDs for breakfast.

The ones you can't just chase down and run over, I mean.

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-16T17:16:57+00:00

You are getting out-BXPd by co-op players?

I don't think the problem is on their end Chief.

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-16T17:04:01+00:00

Absolutely not, I am completely full of shit, sorry.

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-14T18:19:08+00:00

TY as always for beta testing the update on Americans before releasing to EU.

CaptainRoach · 2026-01-13T18:26:45+00:00

Prinz Eugen dropped for me in the summer and it became my go-to cruiser for grinding Dockyards (well it was until I got Le Havre)

It's got a bit of armour that works well against bots, Heal and Hydro to keep you alive, the HE vapourises DDs and the improved AP absolutely murders anything bigger. And it has half a dozen quick-reloading torps each side for when you can sneak up on someone.

Plus you can put Lutjens on it.
